Why is my child not speaking back to me in my native language? What techniques can I use to encourage my child to talk more in the heritage language? Since this is the most frequently asked question, we decided to offer a webinar dedicated to this topic, with practical ideas tried and tested by parents around the world.

If you can’t attend the webinar, don’t worry! We will make it available on our members’ page, which is full of great content!
